Active Aging: Living Life to the Fullest at Wesley Manor

Aging doesn’t mean slowing down—it means living more fully, with intention and joy. At Wesley Manor, we embrace the concept of Active Aging—a lifestyle that encourages physical health, mental stimulation, social engagement, and emotional well-being. It’s a philosophy that aligns beautifully with our Living on Purpose program—a whole-person wellness approach designed to help residents thrive at every stage of life.

What is Active Aging?

Active aging is about empowering older adults to live meaningful, engaged lives, regardless of age or ability. At Wesley Manor, this means creating an environment where residents can stay active, grow relationships, and pursue their passions—whether that’s learning something new, reconnecting with a favorite hobby, or simply enjoying the beauty of the seasons.

Living on Purpose: Wellness in Action

Our Living on Purpose program guides life enrichment across all BHI communities, including Wesley Manor. It focuses on eight dimensions of wellness that ensure residents experience life in a vibrant, engaging, and fulfilling way:

• Physical Wellness: Group fitness, chair yoga, and gardening in our on-site greenhouse
• Emotional Wellness: Support groups, music therapy, and uplifting programs
• Intellectual Wellness: Guest speakers, reading clubs, and lifelong learning opportunities
• Social Wellness: Game nights, themed meals, and resident clubs
• Creative Wellness: Crafting, seasonal décor workshops, and painting classes
• Spiritual Wellness: Devotional services, prayer groups, and chaplain-led reflection
• Environmental Wellness: Outdoor spaces, walking paths, and sustainability education
• Purposeful Living: Volunteering, mentoring, and participating in resident councils

These programs go far beyond simple activities—they are part of a supportive, purpose-filled environment where every resident is encouraged to live fully and meaningfully.

Active Living, Your Way

Whether you’re enjoying time in the greenhouse, attending a spring event, or sharing stories with new friends over coffee, active aging at Wesley Manor looks different for every resident—and that’s exactly how it should be.
